First, let's calculate the amount of the sales tax:
5% of the total cost = (5.75 + 11.45) x 0.05
= 0.8175
Now, let's add the sales tax to the total cost:
Total cost = 5.75 + 11.45 + 0.8175
= $17.02 (rounded to the nearest cent)
Therefore, the total bill including sales tax is $17.02.
5% of the total cost = (5.75 + 11.45) x 0.05
= 0.8175
Now, let's add the sales tax to the total cost:
Total cost = 5.75 + 11.45 + 0.8175
= $17.02 (rounded to the nearest cent)
Therefore, the total bill including sales tax is $17.02.
